Global Drilling Fluids (Water Based, Oil Based, Synthetic and Pneumatic Fluids) Market Competition Forecast and Opportunities, 2021: Focus on Onshore and Offshore Industries - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, Apr 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Drilling Fluids Market By Type (Water Based, Oil Based, Synthetic and Pneumatic Fluids), By Application (Onshore and Offshore), By Region (Asia-Pacific, North America, Europe, etc.), Competition Forecast and Opportunities, 2011-2021" report to their offering.

The global market for drilling fluids is forecast to grow at a CAGR of over 8% during 2016-2021, on account of anticipated increase in oil & gas drilling activities.

In 2015, North America dominated demand for drilling fluids across the globe, followed by Asia-Pacific. Moreover, water based drilling fluids dominated global drilling fluids market, due to their environment friendly properties and cost effectiveness. High costs and environment concerns are projected to reduce demand for oil based drilling fluids and in turn boost sales of high performance aqueous drilling fluids and synthetic drilling fluids.

Recovery in oil & gas prices, and increased capital expenditure by major oil & gas companies is projected to increase rig count and drilling activities across the globe. This is anticipated to fuel demand for drilling fluids during the forecast period. Increasing drilling activities in offshore and onshore fields is anticipated to drive demand for drilling fluids across the globe in the coming years. Increasing onshore activities can be attributed to rise in deep sea drilling, due to growing global oil demand.

Growth in offshore drilling such as deep water and ultra-deep water drilling activities is also anticipated to contribute to the rising demand for drilling fluids across the globe during 2016-2021. Moreover, technological advancements and exploration activities pertaining to shale gas and coalbed methane (CBM) are also boosting global drilling fluids market. Furthermore, in line with regulations and increasing environmental concerns, drilling fluid manufacturers across the globe are focusing on production of environment friendly products.
